CHAPTER 6
Faith unlocked her door and flipped on the light only to see Alex sitting on a chair with a blank face.
“Hey Alex. I see you kept the key.”
“Mmhm.”
“You okay?” She asked closing the door behind her.”
“Save it, Faith.” Alex stood up and slammed a magazine on the coffee table. She picked it up and saw an image of her and Adrian locking lips.
“Look, Alex I-”
“No, Faith! You talking all this bullshit about you glad I’m in your life but you go off and screw my brother? My own brother?
“Alex-”
“Don’t you ‘Alex’ me! I promised I wouldn’t hurt you in anyway. But you go off and see Adrian behind my back…Knowing he’s engaged?”
“You…Can’t leave me,” Faith softly said with a lowered head.
“And why the hell not?!”
She looked up and tried to find the words. “I’m pregnant.”
“Am I the father?” Faith remained silent. “Well?!” Alex yelled loudly, making Faith slightly flinch.
“I…I don’t know.”
Alex laughed to himself hysterically. “You sleep with Adrian and get knocked up. That’s just amazing! Cheat on me with your friends’ fiancé, or AKA my brother. You’re going to have a baby that might call me ‘Daddy’ or Uncle’.”
He walked towards the front door and stared hard at Faith. She looked up on the verge of crying.
“Don’t call. Don’t visit. We’re over.” Alex then left the house and drove off. Faith fell to her knees and cried, knowing there was no remorse in Alex’s words.

Faith took a deep breath as she walked inside the recording studio. Connie, Aliza, and Rez sat waiting on her arrival.
“And the whore of the hour, Faith Thomas!” Connie bitter said. “How you gonna just try to steal my man because you weren’t over him?”
“First of all, whatever Adrian told you was a lie. He started this whole thing. Not me.”
Connie stood being held back by Aliza. “You expect me to believe you over Adrian?”
“You don’t know Adrian like I do! He’s a player. A damn dog!”
“And you’re a fucking bitch!” Connie yelled.
“Okay, stop it you two. Faith, I’m sorry, but you’re out.”
“What?”
“They ruled you out 2 to 1. You’ll receive credit, but your face will be cut.”
“Fine!” faith yelled before getting ready to leave. “Oh, and by the way…I’m pregnant and it might be Adrian’s.” Faith walked away and left back home. As she arrived home, reporters surrounded her home asking questions involving the affair.
Faith only had one more person to call…The one who started this whole thing…Adrian.
“Hello?”
Faith rolled her eyes, figuring he already deleted her number and never memorized it to begin with. “It’s me.”
There was shuffling in the background. “What the hell you doing calling?”
“I thought you had a right to know.”
“Know what?”
“I’m pregnant.”
“Oh…”
“Yeah.”
“Look, Connie has my ass on close lockdown and I barely got away with it-”
“By lying on me?”
Adrian ignored her comment and sighed. “Don’t call me anymore…And keep it.”
“But what if-” Faith was cut off from the line. Faith was officially useless. No one for help. No one to go to.
